Is that a different system?
Sorry I’m on spotty mobile that can’t open anything besides HN lol (God bless this website).
Sometimes it is just easier to use the existing systems and squeeze them as much as possible. Especially when it’s a small team or solo without much $$
- binarymax 3y agoWhen it comes to search I cannot disagree more. https://vespa.ai https://vespa.ai is a purpose built search engine. If you start bolting search onto your database, your relevance will be terrible, you'll be rewriting a lot of table stakes tools/features from scratch, and your technical debt will skyrocket.
